What's in the box: Each monthly box holds 4 to 5 special cheeses chosen by the shop, cut fresh, vacuum packed and shipped chilled.
Cheese In A Box is a Dutch online cheese shop that cuts each order on the day it ships, vacuum packs it and sends it chilled with a sheet of cheese paper for storage at home. It stocks more than 120 cheeses bought directly from makers in Noord-Holland, Noord-Brabant and Stolwijk, as well as Italy, France and Spain. You can buy in three ways. You can order single cheeses once, or set up a fixed delivery of cheeses you choose every 2, 4 or 6 weeks at 10% off. The third option is the monthly cheese box, where the team picks 4 to 5 special cheeses for you. The site says fixed deliveries can be cancelled at any time. Shipping is free in the Netherlands and Belgium on orders over €50, and the shop also delivers to twelve other European countries. The range is strongest on Dutch staples such as boerenkaas, Gouda and Noord-Hollandse kaas. It also has goat, blue, white mould and red smear cheeses, plus cheddar and manchego. The site is mostly in Dutch and the homepage does not give a price for the monthly box, so check that before you sign up. If you want Dutch farmhouse cheese cut to order instead of supermarket wedges, this is a well organised choice.
